Its been a while so I am here to tell ya that I am almost done.
Ordered a Wolfhead polishing flywheel to regrain her, gotta change one more seal on the tranny cause I got a bit of a drip there (The only 3 things I did NOT my self have raised issues :S)
and the I need to replace the Butterfly assembly cause the idle regulating bolts are not doing their job. Idle is too high.

But here are a few conclusive images for you guys.

A flight of the restoration: (images every car enthusiast loves)
Need I add the Before and After text?? :p

Looks great, I don't know where you people get the time to do these amazing restorations!

I struggle just to keep my car on the road with a wife, son and work.
